[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so pissed. My kid has one of these. I'd rather they just do 30-kid classes than have a fake teacher who has no idea what they're doing and a smaller class size. REALLY pissed.[/quote]

How do you know?? [/quote]

It listed right next to her name in the school directory. "Teacher Resident" 
I googled her. She has a 2021 undergraduate degree in theater. So someone who wanted to be an actress, realized it's impossible, and is now trying to teach without a teaching degree because it was an easy job to get. Can't wait.[/quote]

Got it. My school doesn’t have the directory updated yet.

It seems that FCPS is spinning it like these are teachers with out of state license or the wrong license but have taught before. But this is definitely IAs last year who are now teaching. Maybe even having an IA that is the same level of qualification as them. Haha [/quote]

Most of them are recent college grads. I'm actually okay with the IAs that are doing it - at least they have classroom experience. The college grads on the other hand....we'll see how long they last. [/quote]

So is it similar to Teach for America? They recruit recent college grads to teach.[/quote]
